i don't understand why people are so jazzed about the ipod. for a little more i got my PJBox which is almost as open as the empeg (it has a published API and an SDK), and has a very active community/mailing list. my pjbox has a 60GB drive - when is the iPod going to hold 60 GB? not any time soon, i can promise.

it's kind of annoying the way it gets no press - but that's nothing new for me :( way back to my amiga, my newton, my replaytv, and now my riocar, i have a history of using kick-ass products that no one else has heard of :(
